Abstract

As the number of international students increased, liberal arts classes at local universities for their own people were reorganized. In particular, the role and importance of liberal arts Korean language has been expanded as a foundation for students to improve their Korean language skills and acquire knowledge of their majors. In order to come up with a level-based education plan that considers learners' academic abilities in various ways, the professor in charge of liberal arts first worked to list reading materials that can stimulate learners' interest and to step up the writing process so that students could complete their writing. Most important of all, it is that students find the topic of writing on their own and solve the problem of writing on their own. For this purpose, he noted finding various writing topics related to the multinational experience of overseas Korean students. It also created and provided various notices to help students carry out their assignments. These guides were used as reference books for students to easily understand the theory of writing. This writing assignment was completed with team speaking activities (comrade correction) and professors' correction. The professor was a guide to learning, and had the students perform complete and convergent tasks. In doing this task, students can develop a sense of cooperation in solving writing problems, along with an active attitude in selecting topics on their own.
